  • Technical Description of the DEC 7000 and DEC 10000 AXP Family 1
    Technical Description of the DEC 7000 and DEC 10000 AXP Family 1 Abstract The DEC 7000 and DEC 10000 products are mid-range and mainframe Alpha AXP system offerings from Digital Equipment Corporation. These machines were designed to meet the needs of large commercial and scientific applications and therefore are high-performance, expandable systems that can be easily upgraded. The DEC 7000 and 10000 systems utilize the DECchip 21064 microprocessor operating at speeds up to 200 MHz. The high-speed chips, large caches, multiprocessor system architecture, high-performance backplane interconnect, and large memory capacity combine to create mainframe-class performance with a cost and size previously attributed to mid-range systems. The design of the DEC 7000 and 10000 systems provides a high-end platform and system environment for multiple generations of Alpha AXP chips. This platform, combined with a multiprocessor architecture, yields a multidimensional upgrade capability that will allow the system to meet users' needs for several years. System upgrade can take place by adding processors, replacing existing processors with next-generation processors, or both. This upgrade capability ensures stability to the system in terms of the physical and fiscal aspects of the end user's computing environment. The DEC 7000 and DEC 10000 systems are the logical follow-on products of the highly successful VAX 6000 family.[1] The new systems are capable of supporting either VAX processors or Alpha AXP processors. The capability to upgrade from a VAX processor to an Alpha AXP processor without changes to the system is essential for minimal disruption of large commercial applications.

  • VAX VMS at 20
    1977–1997... and beyond Nothing Stops It! Of all the winning attributes of the OpenVMS operating system, perhaps its key success factor is its evolutionary spirit. Some would say OpenVMS was revolutionary. But I would prefer to call it evolutionary because its transition has been peaceful and constructive. Over a 20-year period, OpenVMS has experienced evolution in five arenas. First, it evolved from a system running on some 20 printed circuit boards to a single chip. Second, it evolved from being proprietary to open. Third, it evolved from running on CISC-based VAX to RISC-based Alpha systems. Fourth, VMS evolved from being primarily a technical oper- ating system, to a commercial operat- ing system, to a high availability mission-critical commercial operating system. And fifth, VMS evolved from time-sharing to a workstation environment, to a client/server computing style environment. The hardware has experienced a similar evolution. Just as the 16-bit PDP systems laid the groundwork for the VAX platform, VAX laid the groundwork for Alpha—the industry’s leading 64-bit systems. While the platforms have grown and changed, the success continues. Today, OpenVMS is the most flexible and adaptable operating system on the planet. What start- ed out as the concept of ‘Starlet’ in 1975 is moving into ‘Galaxy’ for the 21st century. And like the universe, there is no end in sight. —Jesse Lipcon Vice President of UNIX and OpenVMS Systems Business Unit TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER I Changing the Face of Computing 4 CHAPTER II Setting the Stage 6 CHAPTER

    EK-FSFCO-WS ULTRIX/ULTRIX Worksystem Software Boot Commands for DECstation/DECsystem 5000 Model 200 Series Processors Dear Digital Customer, Because of changes in the ®rmware of the DECstation/DECsystem 5000 Model 200 series processors to enhance support for the TURBOchannel, the boot commands have changed. As a result, the boot commands for the DECstation/DECsystem 5000 Model 200 series processors that are listed in the Basic Installation Guide, Guide to System Shutdown and Startup, Guide to Diskless Management Services, and that are displayed on the console during an installation are no longer correct. After your new ®rmware is installed, even if you are not reinstalling the ULTRIX operating system, you must reset the environmental variables for the boot and haltaction commands immediately. Until the software and documentation can be revised, please refer to this document when booting your DECstation/DECsystem 5000 Model 200 series processor. 1 Booting the DECstation/DECsystem 5000 Model 200 Series Processor The following sections explain the procedures for: d Determining the Slot and Unit Numbers of Your Boot Device d Setting the Console Environmental Variables d Booting from a System Disk d Booting from a TK50 Tape d Booting from a CDROM Disc Kit d Booting from the Network d Booting during the Installation 1.1 Determining the Slot and Device Numbers of Your Boot Device If you are not reinstalling the ULTRIX operating system after your new ®rmware has been installed, you will need to determine both the slot number of the controller attached to your boot device and the device number of your boot device in order to change the boot variable.
